I am on the bottom here, and you can see the towel that was thrown in to end round one. I went on to win by a pin in round two. This was my first win.

We were a rag tag bunch but won 60 percent of our games. I am number 64 toward the center. The tall black guy at the extreme left was Greg Benton, a good friend. He played for Drake and got cut from the then St. Louis Cardinals on the last day. Yep, I got matched up with him and he just killed me.

I am the one with my eyes closed. Number 40 in the front row (Rodney Lee) went on to start fullback for Georgia Tech. The tall black guy in the back row was our star lineman; I got matched with him and he whipped me good.
